Bring back MicroProse etc etc, the devs/publishers who couldn't rely on patches so had to release their games in a fit state, and when machines didn't have the god-like graphics of today that are used as a smokescreen to hide how poorly finished the games behind them are.

Amen. I sure do miss me some of them who really cared about a quality product that THEY would be proud of and would play (SSI, Microprose, Dyanmix, Troika etc etc etc). Seems though that to stay in business you need to either:
A. Appeal to the common denominator.
B. Charge $60 plus for your product.
Of course today the trend is to combine both...
